UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Tuesday condemned Israel’s strikes as a “flagrant violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Qatar.”

He said Qatar has been playing a very positive role to try and achieve a ceasefire in Gaza and the release of all hostages held by Hamas.

“All parties must work towards achieving a permanent ceasefire, not destroying it," Guterres told reporters.
